The second weekend of October is again the time for Scale Model Challenge 2015.

This year we have added an extra event to the weekend and besides the show on Sunday we gladly announce the SMC Saturday Seminar Event. On Saturday October 10, we offer you the possibility to actively participate in exclusive seminars and take advantage of exclusive offers from the traders that are present during this day.
Please note that SMC Saturday Seminar is only open to participants of the seminars.

On Sunday October 11, it is time again for SMC as you know it: On a exhibition area covering over 6000m2 you can find nearly 100 traders, many club stands, a large contest with international attendance and of course, various special guests: José Luis López Ruiz from Spain, and Michael Kontraros and Christos Panagiotou from Greece.

Another novelty this year is that we have extended the Expozone at the heart of the show with a concept entitled “Collections”. In this area a number of well-known figure painters and scale modellers will show a selection of their work.

In cooperation with Fer Miniatures a special commemorative figure will be available at SMC. This figure is also used in the SMC speed painting competition that will be hosted by Fernando Ruiz Ceano.

Please go to www.scalemodelchallenge.com for the entire listing of the SMC 2015 weekend, and for all information and registration for the SMC Saturday Seminar Event.

The online pre-registration for the SMC contest is open.
26 classes divided over several categories and levels, so there are opportunities for everyone.
The pre-registration closes on October 5 and until then you can make any change necessary, e.g. add or delete a model. After this date the next opportunity to register is at the show on October 11.

There are a number of good reasons to pre-register:
• Save 50% on the registration fee per model.
• Have more time to spend at the show as you will avoid possible delays at the registration terminals.
• There´s a separate ` fast lane` registration desk for pre-registrations .

SMC has grown against our own expectations: 6.500 square meters with over 100 vendors, over 50 clubs and an enlarged contest area offer a lot of great modelling and figure painting to our visitors.

On Saturday, 10th October we have a separate Seminar Event with various workshops by renowned and talented modellers and figure painters/-sculptors.
There are still seats left for some of the seminars, but others are already sold out.
ATTENTION: there is no show on October 10, and the SMC Seminar Saturday Event is only open to registered participants!

As always we organize a buffet dinner on Saturday evening. Everybody is most welcome to join but in order to prevent you from having to scrape the remainders from the plates we urge you to let us know you will be present.
On Sunday evening we wrap things up with another buffet dinner, for which you also need to register.

The NH hotel is situated in the same location as the venue, and you can make your hotel reservations via our website.
